Our objective is to create new performing ensembles of diverse improvisers. The ensembles will vary in size (duos, trio, up to large groups of 15 or more), instrumentation, level of exposure of the artists, and duration. Some will come together for a single performance, others will continue as long-term artistic collaborations. We will host a 4 month virtual residency for 50 musicians followed by an in-person residency with public performances for ensembles that have coalesced.
